Hannah,
A while back you said:
“But I definitely agree that some hear differently than others. I believe this is a spiritual gift, and something we should pay attention to!” If you are interested in an actual case history of someone communicating with the Lord
you can go here and read in her own words how it happened. … http://www.gods-messages-for-us.com/who-am-i–what-is-it-like-to-hear-from-god.html (all are invited to review here) And if you have further questions about it you can email her directly at the address at the bottom of her page. She will respond. It is for you to decide if you believe what is happening. Personally, I do, until I hear something that is contradictory to what we, as Christians, know to be true . The words she is given are very informative of how God sees us in these times and how we need to change.

Malgus:
From your very first statement about “a God of love” I was somewhat confused about what you were trying to say.
I finally concluded that you were applying some sort of limits to the Almighty, and now it appears that that was the wrong interpretation. I totally agree, He is omnipotent, no limits whatsoever. I cannot respond to the ” Patriarchal vs. a Matriarchal” Catholic Church. That is the first time I have ever heard the Church described in those terms. But yes, certain parts of Vatican II were ambushed by a number of modernist theologians who managed to insert their ideas into the final documents and this has led to some very unfortunate results at the parish level world-wide.
Somewhere along the line priests and Bishops then got the idea that they could do their own interpretation of how things should be done. As a result, we have the “Church of nice” where orthodoxy is cast aside. Because so many are walking away from the faith worldwide God the Father, Jesus and His Mother, and even certain Saints are speaking directly to mankind all over the world, calling us back, pointing out the correct path. (Medjugorje in Bosnia, Columbia, SA, Anguera, Brazil, Garabandal, Spain, several in USA) We need to pay attention, discern the valid ones, and respond while there is still time. Being a skeptic is fine as long as it does not become an excuse to not respond to Heaven’s requests. We all find life so comfortable just as we have made it. Change can be very painful.

Mary, the Mother of Jesus, speaking to us on January 14, 2014, this time in Brazil.

Dear children, open your hearts to the grace of the Lord. The grace of God within you, accepted with love, generates grace for your lives and for the lives of your brothers. Sin enslaves, blinds, and destroys. Sin generates sin and leads to perdition. Stay with Jesus. He is your Way, Truth and Life. In Him is your freedom and your salvation. Do not allow the things of the world to contaminate you. You belong to the Lord. He is the only one you should follow and serve. Be courageous. Witness that you belong only to Christ. I am your Mother, and you know how much a mother loves her children. I know each one of you by name, and I will plead with my Jesus for you. Be alert. God wants to speak to you. Close your ears to the facile seductions of the world and listen to the Gospel of my Son Jesus. You are moving toward a future of great spiritual confusion. Great tribulations are coming soon. Whatever happens, do not be separated from the truth. The victory will be the Lord’s. Do not separate yourself from Him. This is the message which I bring you today in the name of the Most Holy Trinity. Thank you for allowing me to gather you here once again. I give you my blessing in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen. Peace be with you.

Bobby, I would also like to know? I would rather read my Bible and listen to my heart. Going through life you must always look at what you are watching on television. Decide early if the book you are reading is going to build you up or break you down/ waste your time. I try to teach my child to think with a clear mind – Good or Evil. Keep or trow away, because its a wolf in sheepskin.

I will weigh in on this “God is love” discussion.
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.” John 3:16 NIV
“We love, because He first loved us.” 1 John 4:19 NIV
I don’t really think any more needs to be said other than that!

No, they are not all on one website. As previously stated, this phenomenon is happening all over the world. God is in a hurry and we
(citizens of the world) are not responding and that is why He is going to extraordinary means to urge our conversion of hearts. The message given in Brazil (previously posted) can be found here:http://www.pedroregis.com/english/historico.php Please read the page describing the history of these events and then click over to the messages before making judgmental statements. If you read the messages with an open mind you will understand the reason for Her visitations there and at all other sites in the world.
Yes, the Bible contains all we need to know for our salvation. Thus, there is nothing new revealed in the current day apparitions and messages, only aids and motivations for us to actually execute what the Bible teaches. Is this not still another gift?

Go there and read the history of how these came about,
and then click over to the “messages” (which have been
going on for many years). If you read with an open mind
you will see why Heaven is reaching down to mankind all
over this world. Yes, the Bible has revealed all that we
need to know for our salvation and thus, there is nothing
new in the current messages, only aids and motivations
for actually executing what the Bible teaches. Is that not
still another gift?
For another example of holy love, go here:

Before you dismiss these read the background of this woman,
she is no kook or dummy. (click on “welcome” and read

The take-away is this:
We are being told by our own Creator how un-prepared
we are for what lies ahead. But, there is still time.

I agree that certain modernist theologians hijacked Vatican II and, coupled with Agents Provocateur, have done much damage to the church.

Back in the 1930’s, the Communists realized that the church was too strong to be taken down from the outside. The more they attacked it, the closer people would cleave to it. They realized it had to be taken down from the inside. So, they began to infiltrate the church with Agents Provocateur in order to not only change it fundamentally, but also to discredit it. Pederasts, homosexuals, deviants and other radicals were sent into the ranks of the priesthood. This was admitted, under oath, in front of Congress in 1958, during the anti-American hearings by one of the ranking members of the Communist Party of the United States.

Fast forward to the late 80’s, and seemingly out of nowhere Catholic priests were being accused of being pedophiles, sodomites, and worse. The fact that the church didn’t defrock these deviants and throw them to the wolves – just moved them elsewhere and then bought off the victims – didn’t help matters. Whoever thought up that idea was an idiot.

Meanwhile, after Vatican II, we had the late 60’s. The next generation of faithful were leaving the church because its teachings were ‘inconvenient’ and conflicted with their hedonistic lifestyle – nevermind the fact that the 60’s radicals were budding communists and socialists – the walk-the-line regimen and moral absolutism of the church was anathema to them. The church responded by morphing from a Patrist stance (Obey, or burn in hell) to a Matrist one (do whatever you want, and as long as you’re “sorry” later, everything’s fine) in order to try and retain members. A church with no followers isn’t a church.

Which brings us to today. Most Catholic churches are fuzzy-wuzzy feel-good “churches of nice”. I’m not a Puritan, but the comparison of the church I knew when I was young, and the church now is 180 degrees different. And the church my mother knew growing up and today? I don’t even want to know what she thinks, and she was a pretty hardcore Catholic in her day…

The Almighty I believe in is the Warrior. Yeah, I know He loves me, but I also know He will crush me flat like a bug if I stray too far from the path.. my feelings on the matter are love, a healthy respect and fear.

Melgus:
Amen! You’ve got it right.
Another document describing plans to destroy the Church is called “The Permanent Instruction of the AltaVendita, A Masonic Blueprint for the Subversion of the Catholic Church” by John Vennari. Looking backward, my own Grandfather was a Mason but he was married to a strong German Catholic woman who stood firm in her faith. She successfully passed it on to her children and my Mom did her part. I thank God for this Grandmother, who I never had the joy of meeting.

Just yesterday, our spiritual Mother, Mary, Mother of Jesus, spoke out again in Ecuador* pleading for (all) of us to return to Her Son. I recommend that all readers here open the attachment below and see what She has to say. She speaks about PREPAREDNESS. And there is a special note for us here in America.

* The woman in Ecuador has been receiving messages from Jesus and Mary for some 20 years. She has several priests guiding her spiritual life in these matters. The Church makes no decision on validity of such events while they are still on-going. Per her instruction, she remains anonymous but goes by the name of “Light of Mary”.
